Introduction

Today, technology has transformed the working processes in every industry. Technological advancements have not only changed the shape of the operations but also the tools and techniques to complete those operations. Technological advancements have made us able to analyze the quality of he crop throughout the processing. If we look at the food market, China is the biggest producer of the food and the second largest producer of the food is India. These two countries are very important in the production of the food and crops. The important concept for the development of the food industry is to utilize maximum technological advancements in the food industry and to maintain the quality of the food. Not only this but also increasing the life and duration of the food, as in preservation of the food.

Because of the increasing population, the demand for the quality food has raised to the next level. Quality food production has become the key concern for the companies and other producer in order to meet the increasing demand of the quality food. Government has to make sure that the quality of the production is maintained and the demand is met accordingly. Because of the globalization, the market for the supply of food has not been restricted to a single place or country. Globalization has also increased the demand of the food and for that purpose it has become a key concern for the industry to maintain the postharvest crop protection. This protection includes the reduction in the decomposition of the food and maintaining the quality of the food.

Post Harvest Technology

Value addition is of key concern for the food industry. In order to provide the quality production of crops and to maximize the growing of the food, advanced technologies and the methodologies are being used by the industry. In order to get the optimum level of quality food, it is very important that the modern industry uses the advanced technologies. The use of advanced technologies has not only increased the quality of the processing but has also increased the shell life of the food.

This has allowed the food industry to increase the level of quality food which will remain intact for the longer time period. In order to gain the advancements in the postharvest technology, new and advanced machineries are used. Processing techniques have allowed the industry to gain the advancements in the handling, packaging and the transportation of the quality food. The increase in the storage infrastructure machinery technology has allowed the industry to process better food quality for the longer time span. The use of the thermal processing and low temperature are some of the advanced methods that are used for the increase in the quality of the postharvest. In order to preserve the food for the longer duration drying, chemical and biological reactions are used in the processing, and not only that there are many other preservation techniques that are used by the manufacturers in order to preserve the food for the ...
